Activity description
Discover the remarkable historical process of São Paulo, which in its 465 years of existence, marked by relative insignificance for more than three centuries, became the largest city in the Southern Hemisphere and one of the largest cities in the world. This tour is designed to cover the main historical landmarks in a chronological order, from São Paulo's early days to the present day, starting from its founding site. Explore some of the most historic landmarks, such as Pátio do Colégio, Sé Cathedral, Largo São Francisco Law School, Viaduto do Chá, Luz Station, Praça da República, the Higienópolis neighborhood, and Paulista Avenue, finishing with a café on the Top Deck of one of the most spectacular observation decks on Paulista Avenue. Learn about the monumental importance of different groups, such as Portuguese, Indigenous peoples, Afro-Brazilians, Italians, Japanese, Arabs, Jews, Germans, and others, in the formation of São Paulo and the legacy they left behind.
